PUBLIC ATTENTION
IS rrspectfullv solicited by the subscriber, to an in
. valuable preparation, the merits of which have
been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
testimony
DR. RELFE’S BOTANICAL DROPS
are every year increasing their long established repu
tation. They hafe outlived many rival preparations,
and are continually gaining upon public confidence.
The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin
istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that
well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
reditary predisposition in the patient, and general y
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony s Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foal and Ob
stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Byes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint. ,
In the last mentioned condition of the system, the
Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk
ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
feditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. Relfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in
cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches— pimples on the face—festering emotions on
the skin—and other diseases of the external surface;
and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics
known, to free the system from humors
A physician of eminence, who had witnessed theer
ftcaev of this article, hid the candor recently to ack
now ledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the
best medicine known, fur the complaints fur which it
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at j
the head of the whole class of such remedies.

WHITE TEETH k HEALTHY GUMS.
TIOSE who would retain or restore these desirable
personal advantages, ate assured that no compo
sition can be obtained superior t: the
BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every
respect, and has, for many years past, given universal
satisfaction wherever it has been used
The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and
other deleterious ingredients, which too frequently
enter the composition of tooth powders in common
use, and it wh tens the enamel of the teeth withouc
doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad
mired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing
the accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ven+ive of the Tooth Ache. The Dentrifice removes
discolorations, and restores the beautiful native white
ness of the enamel. As its application braces and
strengthens the Gums, it secures to them their healthy
and florid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. Price 50 cents

CONSUMPTION, ASTHMA & CATARRH.
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civ.lized society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome m its
earfier stages. It is only when neglected tiiu it ar
rives at the terrific maturity which so often bunies-tlie
sagacity of professional science- An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis
tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
symptoms —oppression of the breast; greeni li and |
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri j
veiled extremeties, and general emaciation of the
whole body; prostration ot strength; flushed cheeks;
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the lull posses
sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis
pers her flattering tale—cold extremities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one ot the
most approved remedies ever yet discovered is
DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and j
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been far advane !
edin a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit
ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatai ter
mination of 'he disorder.
As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they ntav be administered with confidence and
safety to ail ages and classes of people. Unexampled
success ha* hitherto attended their administration in a
great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to
a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving
the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and
activity. 1
Price $1 for whole boxes of >0 pills, and 50 cents for
half do. of 12 pills, with directions. <

BEWARE OF IMPOSITION.
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC
OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins,)
Prepared by C. HERSTONS near Frederick
town. Maryland.
Richmond. Va- July 15, 18>0.
rriHF nublic will be pleased to understand that I was
T £ j discoverer of Judkins’ Ointment and
sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817,
until the expiration of the same; but, having connect
ed myself with Dr. Judkins in the commencement, I
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term
of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I have
made an improvement in the same, iivd taken ont»ipa
tent thereon. N. SHbPHE •
(TT Imposition having been practised upon the nub
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of ‘ Jud
kins’ Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself of the
authority granted to him in his letters patent, now to
call the Ointment after his own name, Henceforth it
will be known by the name of
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC 01 NT
MEN 1', (formerly Judkins'.)
When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had, in several instances, experienced its good effects,
1 sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fail into many
hands, some of whom would probably undertake t<
make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process-ne
vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si
tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi
nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera
ted. Under these considerations, I secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,
some of which have so long baffled the skill of me
dical science: . .
1st White swellings of every description;
2d Sore le^s and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose
hardened tumors in women's breasts, wii.Ch oftentimes
terminate in ulceiatcd cancei'9;
4th Felons; or what some people know by thename
rtf catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic pains of the joints;
6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or m
whatever part situate;
7th Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint the pa
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
out of water;
8th Chilblains or parts affected by frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for bums and
scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a
short time.
For inflamed women’s breasts ami glandular swel
lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the
medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap
plication®, (us it does not contain the smallest atom of
any preparation of the mineral,) because it does not
lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold.
This Ointment has cured sores of many years land
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal tli*
external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious oi rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries,
increase the quantity of discharge, remove the offen
sive smell, and ease the pains.
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica
tion of forty-eight hours

Doctor S. H. P. Lf.e, New London, Conn.
Deab Sib—It is now upwards of twenty years t «at I
have used your New London Bilious Pills in my tumi
lv. and always found them an efficient purgative in al
most everv description of disease, and believe they sa
i ved many' a long doctor’s bill by their early and timely
use. 1 never found their accustomed certainty to vary
, in their operation and effects until a few months past?
i and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve
ry instance of using them, 1 began to conclude that you
1 had made your fortune, and abandoned their matiulac
i ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this
I impression, 1 accidentally saw an advertisement ot
! yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious
' imitations from your own manufacture, by having your
| WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions,
! and that in no instance were the imitations signed with
I pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other
respact Finding those 1 had without this test, I be
gan to suspect that “ all was not fair in medicine, as
well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe
caries for your pills, with your written signature. 1
found many without this test, but none 'vith it, until I
came to the Messrs Keerls’, who assured me they had
them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using
them, found the same effects from them I had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my
seffin possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that
that 1 cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this
information.
To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu

as follows: Whilst returning from Washington to Aici

that 1 could scarcely swallow; and nay face, breast, tr,:
bodv, presented evident sy mptoms of the great dai.
ger l was in, and 1 knew’ not w hat to do; Calomel or
Mercury 1 abhorred as poison, and therefore des
no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, wht
had experienced tin good effect of the Hygcan Pd:
in a case or twm of her own, most strenuously advise,
me to try their virtue, which, w ith reluctance, i c
sented to, and commenced by taking eigln lnto. i o:l!.‘
at night, and eight No. 2 the next morning, and con
tinued taking, increasing daily, morning and evening
until l took sixteen No 2 at a time, which were d •
solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, 1 c ui<
not otherwise swallow them. 1 confess the dose wt‘
me feel somewhat qualmish, 8tc.; but the piib a:n!
pow’ders, of' which I took one or two tea-spoonstufl u
day, operated well, and the final result w«s, tout ! hi
